Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

You anticipate that you will have $432,522 in the account on your 65th birthday, following your final contribution.

Explanation:

To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the future value (FV) and FV of ordinary annuity as appropriate as given below:

FVd = D * (1 + r)^n ......................................................................... (1)

FVo = P * {[(1 + r)^n - 1] ÷ r} ...................... (2)

Where,

FVd = Future value of initial deposit or balance amount as the case may be = ?

FVo = FV of ordinary annuity starting from a particular year = ?

D = Initial deposit = $5,000

P = Annual deposit =s $500

r = Average annual return = 12%, or 0.12

n = number years = to be determined as necessary

a) FV in five years from now

n = 5 for FVd

n = 4 for FVo

Substituting the values into equations (1) and (2), we have:

FVd = $5,000 * (1 + 0.12)^5 = $8,812

FVo = $500 * {[(1 + 0.12)^4 - 1] ÷ 0.12} = $2,390

FV5 = Total FV five years from now = $8,812 + $2,390 = $11,201

FVB5 = Balance after $5,000 withdrawal  in year 5 = $11,201 - $5,000 = $6,201.

b) FV in 10 years from now

n = 10 - 5 = 5 for both FVd and FVo

Using equations (1) and (2), we have:

FV of FVB5 = $6,201 * (1 + 0.12)^5 = $10,928

FVo = $500 * {[(1 + 0.12)^5 - 1] ÷ 0.12} = $3,176

FV10 = Total FV 10 years from now = $10,928 + $3,176 = $14,104

FVB10 = Balance after $10,000 withdrawal  in year 10 = $14,104 - $10,000 = $4,104

c) FV in 45 years from now

n = 45 - 10 = 35 for both FVd and FVo

Using equations (1) and (2), we have:

FV of FVB10 = $4,104 * (1 + 0.12)^35 = $216,690

FVo = $500 * {[(1 + 0.12)^35 - 1] ÷ 0.12} = $215,832

FV45 = Total FV 45 years from now = $216,690 + $215,832 = $432,522

Conclusion

Therefore, you anticipate that you will have $432,522 in the account on your 65th birthday, following your final contribution.

Which of the following statements is normative? Group of answer choices Congress gives certain business corporations tax breaks.
fredd [130]

Answer: Congress gives too many tax breaks to corporations.

Explanation:

Normative statements are said to be statement of opinion and not fact.

Option D is therefore a normative statement because it is the opinion of the speaker that congress gives too many tax breaks because from a neutral standpoint, it cannot be said with certainty the number of tax breaks that will be considered too much.

The other options are statements of fact.

diamong [38]

Answer:

$5300

Explanation:

Contribution margin for Division B = Sales * Contribution margin ratio

= $243,000 * 20%

= $46,800

Total contribution margin = Division A + Division B

= $46,400 + $46,800

= $93,200

Contribution margin $93,200

Less : Traceable fixed expenses $51,100

Less : Common fixed expenses (plug) $5300

Net operating income $33,800

An employee of a firm has a job where the employee can easily adjust the number of hours they work for the employer per year. Th
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The answer to both a and b is in the explanation below

Explanation:

a) The increase in wage can either decrease or increase the hours worked. This is became an increase in wage has both substitution effect and income effect that work in different directions. Substitution effect An increase in wage increases the opportunity cost of leisure, thereby making the worker increase number of hours worked. Income effect The increase in wage also makers the worker richer, thereby making the worker decrease number of hours worked.

Since no information about worker's preferences is given, we do not Imow which effect will dominate the other effect and, therefore, we do not know what the net impact of the increase in wage will be.

b) The bonus will only have income effect. The bonus will make the workers richer, thereby making the worker decrease number of hours worked.

If in part a), the substitution effect and income effect are equal in magnitude, then there will be no change in the number of hours worked. The number of hours worked will remain the same at 2000 hours. Since the employer would be paying $5 extra on each hour worked, the cost to the employer of increase in wage would be $10,000 (=2000 x $5), which is the same as the bonus in part b).
